Bug Description

Latest Natty update (1/2/2011) installs X.org 1.10 RC1. This causes the EMGD driver to fail to load with an ABI version mismatch.

Added the following lines to /etc/X11/xorg.conf:

Section "ServerFlags"
Option "IgnoreABI" "True"
EndSection

This allows the server to get past the version mismatch but eventually a segfault occurs.

Installation script for Natty downgrades xorg from 1.10 to 1.9,
solving the issue.
